Use the techniques from Chateau Blues to create authentically aged and beautiful furniture

Past student Kelly painted a beautiful sideboard using the techniques from Chateau Blues. She was absolutely delighted with the results!

“I never believed I could do this technique but with your step by step instructions and great teaching style, I actually did it! ”

Not just for blues!

On this chiffonier I used the techniques from this module with layers of pinks and purples

And I used the same techniques here with teals and blues (you can see I have a bit of a thing for chiffoniers!)

In Chateau Blues you'll learn how to layer colours and glazes and use special effects for a unique patina and gently blended effect, create an authentically aged gilded finish and add depth and drama to your painted pieces.
